Enzyme Technologies

These researchers work on enzyme technologies. They used MSI resources for enzyme modeling (e.g., effects of immobilization, microenvironmental changes, bonding, conformation), modeling enzyme docking on nanoparticles, visualization of enzymes, and reaction environment modeling. They also used existing models to investigate thermodynamical and physical properties of chemicals.
